In English
The same who very much wished to fight the battle found himself in a different predicament on the first day of the battle. He lamented thus, “Oh , how can I kill my friends, relatives and teachers? My eyes are rolling. Let us retreat from the battle. Let us not waste time.” It was the mind of which was the cause for his different predicaments. Mind is the cause for one’s sorrow as well as joy: for one’s gain or loss, for praise or for blame. Liberation cannot be obtained unless the mind is conquered. Saint said that one cannot attain liberation by simply living in a forest. Saint said, “Misfortune will come to you even if you hide yourself in a dense forest. Your body is bound to be destroyed by death even though you take utmost care of it.”
